Got to love it when one of the worst sides in the division are giving that much stick to the table toppers!

Had an interesting day ay the crease today...getting chirp off their cover fielder from the off only fueled the fire! Apparently taking 4 balls to hit a bOundary was too slow!

He then called me fat, a cow corner slogger, referred to the salad cart at harvester and the carvery at toby....all of which made me hungry!

Anyway we won and he was silenced

Did you have a good feed though?.. haha

Good knock lad :D How do you concentrate on the ball, i seem to watch it and just go after it instead of actually playing naturally  >:(

i usally just wait and play the ball on a simple system line/length... if its on off stump ill pat it back if its out side line ill try smash it out of ground. if its on middle and leg ill try and flick it over midwicket. if its a short ill cut or pull unless its to close to my body.

i dont really get the concentration thing i just wait for the bowler to bowl.

however today i was just like ill step across and try and hit this over leg or ill go down track etc

worked out ok today

Ive got a really intense pre ball routine which I stick to, makes me focus, as the bowler starts his run up, I'll think 'play late, play straight, watch the ball'

Lost concentration after reaching 100 twice now in Saturday league matches...rather annoyed with myself as both time there was 8-9 overs left to really cut loose after doing the hard yards!
